My prose / poem "The Maddening Rush Before The Blizzard" is about the maddening rush on a grocery store before the arrival of a blizzard....

 "THE MADDENING RUSH BEFORE THE BLIZZARD"

 

Talk on the radio and TV

Shoppers were thronging madly

In the store to shop for

Those items that were needed

People were in a hurry

People were in a frenzy

People were running around crazy

Children and babies

Were crying very loudly

ho was just strolling about

Whistling some long ago

Broadway show tune

Not sure about anyone else

But it sure put me at ease
